A Cyclopaedia of Female Biography/Markham, Mrs.
MARKHAM, MRS.,
As her cognomen is placed on the title-page of many books, though some assert it is fictitious. This writer has, however, laboured with much success for the improvement of the young. Three generations have had the benefit of her little "Histories of France," and of "England," where the leading facts are produced, divested of philosophic comments so dry and useless to children. Her other works are judiciously prepared, and all have been successful. Many editions have been published in the United States.
